Crowds fled to 'Surf City' restaurant for shelter. The owner eventually lowered the gate to protect those inside, in case bullets followed the crowd through the glass doors.

"I hear them shooting, and I close the gates down," said owner Elez Bucaj.

Despite all of the claims of hearing and seeing gunfire, police say there were NO shots fired.

No arrests were made.

Eyewitness News is told there was extra police presence at Luna Park before the chaos erupted. It was Easter Sunday, the weather was warm, and authorities learned that it would be initiation night for gang members.
